Chapter 220: Attempt to control



Chapter 220: Attempt to control

Everything is ready. Yang Jian's attention is not on Zhang Liqin's figure, but on her slightly bulging belly.

He knows what a forming ghost fetus means.

Although he doesn't know the connection between this ghost fetus and the one from Zhou Zheng, the most urgent task now is to remove it.

Once Zhang Liqin is deeply corrupted by the ghost fetus in a few days, there will be no way to save her.

She can only wait for death.

"I need to make some attempts, don't be nervous." Yang Jian stood in front of her and advised.

Zhang Liqin tensed up and nodded solemnly.

"First attempt." Yang Jian thought to himself.

In the next moment, a red light emerged from his body, and the ghost eye on his forehead opened instantly, enveloping Zhang Liqin in the ghost domain.

"No effect?" He looked at her slightly bulging belly.

The ghost fetus had no reaction and no resistance, smoothly entering the ghost domain.

"It's exactly as I speculated, now we need the second attempt." Yang Jian didn't hesitate, and his shadow immediately began to change.

The black shadow was dense like ink, flowing slowly on the ground like mercury, and then stood up from the ground.

Soon, a headless shadow stood eerily behind him.

This was the first time Zhang Liqin saw Yang Jian's true appearance so clearly. It was indeed eerie and terrifying. She also knew in her heart that both the extra red eye and the tall black figure behind him were definitely not human, but two truly terrifying ghosts.

The ghost shadow slowly approached her.

They were almost sticking together, and Zhang Liqin felt a cold breath approaching, making her hair stand on end. Goosebumps appeared on her fair skin, and a chill surged from the soles of her feet.

"Stay still." Yang Jian said in a low voice.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Zhang Liqin's face turned pale.

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about my shadow. It wants to possess your body. The nature of the fierce ghost is still there. Once it is suppressed, it will lose control." After Yang Jian finished speaking, cracks suddenly appeared on the ghost shadow's body, and within those black cracks were five scarlet eyes.

The appearance of the ghost eye immediately stopped the ghost shadow's movements, freezing it in place, unable to move.

"I can only move the part that I allow you to move."

Yang Jian closed one of the ghost eyes on the ghost shadow, and its black arm regained movement.

This time, it behaved.

The ghost shadow's arm reached towards Zhang Liqin's slightly bulging belly.

"Yang, Yang Jian?" Zhang Liqin began to panic and fear in this eerie situation.

"It's okay, trust me." Yang Jian frowned deeply.

The ghost shadow's hand was intangible, as if it was really a shadow, and it passed directly through Zhang Liqin's fair skin and entered her belly.

However, the next moment, the attempt failed.

The ghost shadow's hand passed directly through Zhang Liqin's body without touching the ghost fetus inside.

"The second attempt failed as expected." Yang Jian didn't find it strange, because everything was within his expectations.

Indeed, if Zhang Liqin's body became intangible, the ghost fetus would also become intangible, and the ghost shadow wouldn't be able to touch it.

So, he had to make Zhang Liqin's body intangible while keeping the ghost fetus tangible in order to perfectly remove it.

Using brute force could also remove it, but she would die.

Yang Jian was now trying to save a life, not take one. He wouldn't use overly aggressive methods.

"Is that thing out?" Zhang Liqin trembled slightly. If Yang Jian hadn't been so confident standing here, she would have screamed and run away.

Yang Jian said, "We still need one final attempt. If this attempt fails, your situation will become very bad. But don't be afraid, I have an 80% chance of success with the third attempt. However, it requires some time to prepare. Stand here and wait for me."

The third attempt was to merge the ghost domain and the ghost eye, so that the two abilities could perfectly cooperate to remove the ghost fetus.

And this required a medium.

The medium was Yang Jian's own body, because he was a ghost tamer.

Only Yang Jian himself could merge the abilities of two fierce ghosts, as ghosts wouldn't cooperate with each other.

"In this case, I'm back to the starting point. The method mentioned on the human skin paper, hanging in front of the ghost mirror and resurrecting from death, perfectly controlling the revived ghost shadow?"

Yang Jian felt like he had unknowingly returned to the old path.

Could he have been tricked?

But he didn't care for now. Since it was an attempt, there was no need to take risks. He only needed to experiment with a small part.

Yang Jian suddenly looked at his right hand.

Just merging one hand, even if it failed, the risk was controllable.

"Yes, let's do it." Yang Jian nodded."But after pondering for a while, I decided to use my left hand instead," Yang Jian said, looking at his right hand.

With that, he decided to try with his left hand.

"Miss Zhang, do you see that lighter and candlestick over there? If I lose control, you must immediately light the red candle with the lighter at my command," Yang Jian instructed. "If everything goes well, there's no need."

"Okay, got it," Zhang Liqin nodded.

Yang Jian was just adding an extra layer of insurance.

He was only dealing with a minor ghost, not facing a highly dangerous supernatural event. There was no room for mistakes.

Taking a deep breath, he felt a wave of nervousness.

The Ghost Shadow was retracted and stood behind him again.

Then, the dark arm of the Ghost Shadow moved again. This time, it wasn't used on someone else, but slowly merged into Yang Jian's left arm.

He was attempting to control one arm of the Ghost Shadow.

Using the Ghost Eye for suppression, there was a chance of success.

But there was also a risk of failure. If he failed, Yang Jian would face two possibilities. One, he would lose an arm to the Ghost Shadow. Two, the Ghost Shadow would go out of control.

However, the second possibility was limited by the Ghost Candle. Within the light of the Ghost Candle, the Ghost Shadow couldn't lose control.

So, Yang Jian only needed to worry about whether he could keep his arm.

"Not only to save Zhang Liqin, but if I succeed, I can find a new path based on controlling two ghosts, without risking hanging myself," Yang Jian thought to himself.

As the Ghost Shadow merged, Yang Jian felt a chill enveloping his left hand, rapidly losing sensation.

It was as if his arm was no longer his own, but someone else was vying for control.

Being possessed by a ghost meant giving your body to the ghost. You were no longer yourself.

"Suppress it," Yang Jian immediately transferred the Ghost Eye within his body.

A Ghost Eye immediately pushed through the flesh of his palm and emerged.

The coldness in his palm quickly faded, and he felt his hand gradually regaining sensation as if it had been frozen stiff.

"Did I succeed?" Yang Jian asked, his face serious.

But the next moment, his face changed drastically.

The Ghost Shadow in his arm was out of control, becoming restless. The skin on his entire arm was cracking inch by inch, like fragile porcelain about to shatter.

In less than ten seconds, his arm would be ruined due to the uncontrollable Ghost Shadow.

"Damn it, the power of this Ghost Shadow is stronger than I thought. I didn't feel anything when it didn't have a body, but once it has a body, the threat will skyrocket," Yang Jian tried to control it, but his power was no match for the Ghost Shadow.

At this moment, his entire arm was twisting weirdly after the cracks appeared. For a normal person, this arm would have been useless.

"Should I light the candle?" Zhang Liqin was startled by the state of Yang Jian's arm and asked anxiously.

"Not yet, let me try again," Yang Jian gritted his teeth and transferred the last Ghost Eye in his body to his arm.

The Ghost Eye on his forehead disappeared, and the seventh eye appeared on his arm.

As the Ghost Eye opened, the strange restlessness in his arm immediately subsided.
